We have partnered with Bongo International Parcel and Mail
Forwarding to service our international customers.

Bongo International provides its customers with their very own
US address (not a P.O. Box). Once you have a US address, you
will be able to make purchases with us as well as other US based
online retailers. Bongo receives your purchases and logs them
into their online system where you can consolidate them with
other orders.

Ground Shipping: Free ground shipping for all orders in the continental USA. In many cases products will arrive within 2-3 days, however based on delivery location and availability of items at a specific warehouse, standard ground shipping can take up to 5-7 business days to arrive.

Two-Day Air: Once shipped, your product will be in transit for two business days.

Standard Overnight: Once shipped, your product will arrive the following business day.

Orders of oversized items will require truck shipping.

Some small items like replacement bulbs, small replacement parts and scented ornaments are shipped via USPS and are usually in transit for 7-10 business days.

What is truck shipping?

Certain oversized items require special freight shipping and cannot be shipped via normal shipping services due to their size or weight. Shipping address and delivery area information will need to be available (dock access, driveway, upstairs, etc.). Orders will be shipped via a designated freight company based on the delivery zip code. Please allow two additional business days for us to coordinate a delivery schedule with you.

We are not able to ship oversized items outside of the continental US. If you are in Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico or Canada and wish to purchase an oversized item, please contact Customer Service to discuss shipping options.

Shipping to PO boxes and APO addresses

We are currently unable to ship to PO boxes or APO addresses. Please supply a physical mailing address when filling out your shipping information.

What if I change my mind about my order after it is shipped?

After the item is shipped, we cannot cancel the order. If you would like to return your product, please follow our standard Return Policy. Please note that if you choose to refuse delivery of your package(s) instead of following our return procedures, you will be charged a $75 service fee per package.

My package was damaged or lost during shipment.

Damaged Package

Please notify us within 7 days of receipt of a damaged package with the UPC code on the damaged carton and a complete description of the damage.

Balsam Hill will have FedEx pick up the damaged packages for inspection. As long as the damaged item is still in stock, we will send a replacement item.

Lost Package

If your tracking number shows that your package was delivered, but you did not receive it, please contact us. If your order contained more than one box, we will need to get the tracking numbers of the boxes that were received. We will work with FE and get back to you with a solution within 24 business hours.
